So at first I thought I have an olive shade which is marked as blue..these both read pink and blue..(Remember the goof up in Eyeconic..I got two greens instead of one grey..read HERE )

Now I got confused between the blue and green..there was no swatch for the blue one anywhere online..and this swatches a deep green..


Basically the three blue/greens in this range are one is a turquoise blue, one olive green and one this Blue which is a deep sea green..

These are eyeshadows in chubby plastic crayon form with transparent lids and matching ends to the shades..and needs to be sharpened.


Pink is a beautiful champagne pink..makes a nice easy to wear color..a great highlight, perfect for inner corners and also highlighting your cheeks.. (or as shown to us in the Lakme Absolute Illusion Masterclass, after the normal base shadow is done, this pink shade was warmed in between fingers and applied at the centre..i.e where the eyeballs are..and it gave a beautiful nice shimmery sheen) Very multi purpose !

Blue is actually a deep sea green..its quite rich and dark..and would make for perfect night time smokey eyes.


They have all the features they mentioned ! Glides effortlessly, super soft, amazing pigmentation, stays put throughout the day but needs to be blended super fast coz it sets immediately.


Here I have used Pink with subtle eyeliner..would look great with bold red lips..or any bright lip..when you do not want the eyes to be heavy..but still some sheen and shine 🙂

Pros:

1. Super soft.
2. Glides smoothly.
3. Doubles up as an eyeliner.. (though a thicker one..you can make for subtle smokey eyes by just blending the thick liner)
4. Stays put through the day.
5. Amazingly pigmented.
6. Comes in 8 shades to choose from.. Bronze and Purple are amazing too..apart from these two..and White which is a nice golden white.
7. Pink and White are multi purpose.

Cons:

1. I am not sure why this is named ‘Blue’ :/
2. These are priced a little higher. (Rimmel Scandaleyes are priced at Rs.415/- for 3.2g qty..though a few shades in Lakme are more pigmented than Rimmel)

Overall I would say, these are quite amazing…and I loved the shades they have come up with..there are subtle Pink and White..and bright Purple and Blue, and Indian wedding wear Bronze and Olive..there is one for everyone..and for all occasions..Highly recommend them..

Rating:

Quality: 4/5
Value for money: 3.75/5
Availability: 4/5

Overall Rating: 3.75/5

Would I buy it again: Yes..I am liking Bronze and Purple.

Lakme ABSOLUTE Range Info, Pictures

Yesterday I posted about the ABSOLUTE Fab Lab and the Press Conference where Kareena Kapoor unveiled the whole range..So here are all the products included in the range..

Sorry..but this is a long post with many pictures..

This is the cover page of the coffee table book which was presented to Kareena

Face products

Lip products

Eye Products

Brushes

So this is it..Phew :/ I liked the fact that they have included concealers and brushes in the collection..though the concealer have only 2 shades and rest of the foundations and powder have just 3 shades..I do not know why they always have few shades to choose from..I mean only 3 shades are not going to match everyone in the world..come on..and there are no darker shades for the duskier lot. The blushes and eye shadows are baked and shimmery. The Absolute Kohl Ultimate and Forever Silk Eyeliner which are already introduced are also a part of this collection.

I met Tanveer of Addicted to Blush, Ankita of Corallista and Rohini of Speaking Chic. I also got a makeover done using the ABSOLUTE range products..I would post a FOTD and the products used and my experience with it.

Some more pictures and swatches coming up 🙂

P.S: Today is the last day to enter the LaVaque Crystal Nail File Giveaway…if you have not entered already..go here
